Question:

What does the idiom "to be a dark horse" mean?

1.
a little-known person who may succeed unexpectedly
2.
a horse of black colour
3.
a person who deliberately avoids public attention
4.
an unlucky competitor in a race

Correct Answer: a little-known person who may succeed unexpectedly

A "dark horse" is a candidate about whom little is known but who may win unexpectedly. The literal horse reading and the attention-avoidance reading are traps.
